All GERARDI vises and accessories are modular and components of all our vises will interchange with perfect alignment.
The vises can be matched side to side with the highest precision and minimum of set up times thanks to many fixed reference points.
All this is possible thanks to the high precision of the vise particularly as regards:
the base high;
the alignment with longitudinal key-nuts with respect to the fixed jaw;
the perpendicularity of the fixed jaw with respect to the vise base and the parallelism of the base top and bottom surfaces.
Those features allows us to solve the most varied and complicated problems of clamping in a few seconds with the use of more vises.
NO WEAR
Thanks to the manufacturing with only the most suitable materials and to the structure of the vise components.
High alloyed quality resistance steel, case hardened HRC 60 ±2, is used in manufacturing all the Gerardi vises and accessories in order to give maximum rigidity, high performances and no wear.
MODULARITY
All vises and accessories are modular and components of all our vises will interchange with perfect alignment to provide different workholding solutions.
With this basic principle the only difference between fixtures with the same width of clamping is the base (whose length determines the maximum opening of the vise), while the rest of components have same dimensions.
hrough the simple addition or substitution of some components You can change the type of clamping as Your needs require using the same fixture purchased before (single clamping, swivel base, double, vertical, smooth or round or flat or rough workpieces, manual, hydraulic or pneumatic).
